Now I see this... None of my Chicago fan friends knew or told me about this either. Assuming it didn't work out, hopefully we can arrange something. I'm in talks with my close-knit group that went to the meet up at the Hard Rock Café a couple of years ago...
I'm in Michigan, maybe if we get a few more people in the great lakes area we could come up with a date to meet in Chicago... there is a Lincoln Park in Chicago isn't there? seems like a good place to meet up if this is a good idea.
There is. I'm trying to come up with a date with the group I'm talking with to see if we can make something happen. I'll keep you posted.
I know there's a FB event group for some people that are trying to organize something at the Camden Waterfront in NJ on 8/1 (the day they were supposed to play BB&T Pavillion). I've contacted Pierre from 93.3 WMMR to try to get some involvement there. There's also a crew trying to get together at SummerStage in NY on the morning they were supposed to play the free concert that's getting some decent hype. I'm following both currently.
I'm from Toronto. Not sure how many are from Canada, but I'd love to get people together for some sort of memorial.
There is an event tonight. I am in Austin, and will be going to the Austin one next monday. Dallas, Austin: https://www.facebook.com/events/1923973871182951/ https://www.facebook.com/events/123025814979570/
I'm actually not able to do anything tonight due to work. Hopefully at least we can do a candlelight vigil the day the band would've been in Dallas, or hopefully sooner.
Highly encourage as many people to fill this out as possible. And maybe even share it to other LP communities (I've edited the form so that it can get more information) so we can get stuff organized for these memorials. Because a lot of people want to do something but can't find people in their area.
I'm hoping to host an event in Toronto on August 8, the night they were to play the Budweiser Stage. https://www.facebook.com/events/215...pe":"22","action_history":"null"}&pnref=story
It's looking more and more like a bigger group wants to get together the day that the concert was supposed to be (August 14). I personally feel like we should have a get together sooner though, but no one is making themselves available for it.
A few of us are trying to organise sth in Croatian capital with little luck so far, it's sad because we'll be one of the few countries that didn't have a memorial.
Not gonna lie, that actually sounds like a great idea... I'll ask the guys I got what they think. Edit: It's looking like this will be the date for us too. It's like 2 weeks from now, plenty of time to get rid of these man tears.
There'll be a meetup for fans in the Netherlands this sunday from 1pm in Utrecht. Details will follow on this FB event site: https://t.co/dQiGllZ3gE?amp=1
